“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”
Ah, Monday, that great enemy of peace of mind and sound sleep – we meet again. For some of you, this is your second week back at work – for me, it is my first. And I have to say, the novelty wears VERY thin, very quickly. Especially when you have to wake...

Happy 2024, everyone! Let us look forward to another year of great poasts, beautiful women, and (hopefully) a slightly less insane set of circumstances – though, to be honest, that is probably too much to hope for at this point in time. Nonetheless, wherever you...
Has it been a year already? That sure whizzed by damned fast. It seems like only a few months ago that I put up the 2022 edition of this compilation, which every year looks back at the lovely ladies poasted over at this very ‘eavy, very ‘umble site. This...
